The head of Niger’s Interior Ministry, Mohammed Toumba, said Niamey continues to work on the withdrawal of the US contingent from the country.
According to Mohammed Toumba, Niamey is continuing the initiative to withdraw the US military contingent from the country. The Nigerian Interior Minister specified that a high-ranking general from the United States will soon visit the state to discuss the details of the procedure.
“We are still working on the withdrawal of US troops from Niger. I think this week, we will receive one of the American generals who will come to discuss the programme,” Mohammed Tumba told journalists.
Recall, earlier the Commander-in-Chief of the Chadian Air Force Idriss Amin Ahmed said that the United States should stop activities at the airbase near the capital of N’Djamena because the Americans could not document the purpose of their stay in the country.
